Grab Taxi

Like Uber for taxis in Thailand. Enter in your current location, destination, and time. The Grab app will show you an estimate of how much your taxi ride will cost so you don’t have to ever worry about getting overcharged on your ride. Press the “Book” button and taxi cabs in the area will be notified. The Grab taxi app charges a 50 baht fee on top of the metered ride cost.

Global Air Quality Monitoring & Pollution Forecast

During burning season the air quality can vary daily. Use this app to find out what the current air quality index (AQI) is and the forecast for the future. You don’t even have to open the app as the AQI is shown in the notification badge on your phone.

Lazada

Similar to Amazon for Thailand. Order just about anything from Lazada and get it delivered for free. Usually delivery is around 2 days but can take longer if the item ordered is shipping from another country.
